On August 1^st, HMA kicked off our 6 week “Walk to Rio” movement challenge!  Our Wellness Committee increased our goals and rewards for this year’s challenge since it’s our 5th year of offering a HMA-sponsored movement challenge.

I’m very excited to report, that we met all of our goals!  Our goals were focused on:  higher participation, less fallout, and a high number of team steps.

Participation Goal: 75% - 100% of HMA employees register for the challenge

               Participation Goal Met: 84% of HMA employees registered for the challenge

Fallout Goal: At least 75% of HMA employees complete the full 6 weeks of the challenge

               Fallout Goal Met: 75% of HMA employees completed the full 6 weeks of the challenge

Team “Steps” Goal: “Walking” to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

               Team “Steps” Goal Met: We significantly passed our goal as Team HMA walked 37,209,216 steps (which is approximately 17,681 miles).

Since starting HMA-Sponsored challenges 5 years ago, these are the best results we have seen!  Having HMA employees working together towards a common goal with an awesome reward inspired people to walk a little further, and participate throughout the full challenge.

For this challenge, HMA employees used our new Wellness Hub – launched in July.  Our team loved that they could sync their devices to the hub to easily participate and track steps.  If you would like more information about our Wellness Challenges or the Wellness Hub, please reach out to your Account Manager or our Sales Team.
